In the emerging field of topological quantum computing, topologically protected states can be utilized to minimize quantum decoherence [1]. We use a recently developed method for time-dependent quantum transport [2], and we consider a superconducting wire - hosting a Majorana zero mode at its edges [3] - connected to metallic leads. We investigate how the Majorana zero mode builds up in the transient regime [4], and we discuss how these ultrafast transport properties could also be observed experimentally.
